Walk San Jose

Let’s make San Jose more walkable, one step at a time!

California Walks has worked in San Jose since 2012 to develop, better coordinate, and strengthen pedestrian safety efforts and walkability in neighborhoods across the city. Still, San Jose remains the largest city in California without a dedicated, staffed walk advocacy organization. At the same time, pedestrian fatalities in the city continue to increase, accounting for nearly half of all traffic

fatalities in San Jose since 2014. Given the urgency of addressing these issues, San Jose needs to develop the capacity and impetus to improve walkability, bikeability, and traffic safety, especially as the city's population grows. Cal Walks has established the Walk San Jose program to leverage and localize the organization’s track record across the state and country. Walk San Jose taps into existing relationships with City and County staff, partner organizations, and community members to serve as a linchpin organization for walkability efforts in San Jose.

(3 of 3) Did you know? Our post crash guide is now available in Spanish and Vietnamese! 🎉🎉🎉

In many cities, post-crash resource guides, such as the guides created by Los Angeles Walks and Walk San Francisco, have helped survivors and those bereaved by road crashes understand what are the next steps to take and where to find legal and mental health services.

Inspired by these guides, Walk San Jose compiled a Post-Crash Resource Guide that aims to provide San Jose-specific resources for survivors of crashes and/or those who have suddenly lost a loved one to a road crash.

Find the guide at: calwalks.org/walk-san-jose under "Resources". For more information, please reach out to Theresa at [email protected].

En muchas ciudades, las guías de recursos de seguimiento a choques, como las guías creadas por Los Angeles Walks y Walk San Francisco, han ayudado a les sobrevivientes y a les persones en duelo por choques de tráfico a comprender cuáles son los próximos pasos a seguir y dónde encontrar servicios legales y de salud mental.

Inspirado por estas guías, Walk San Jose compiló una Guía de recursos que usar después de un choque que tiene como objetivo proporcionar recursos específicos de San José para les sobrevivientes de choques y / o aquelles que repentinamente perdieron a un ser queride en un choque de tránsito.

Encuentre la guía en: calwalks.org/walk-san-jose en "Recursos". Sigue la traduccion del recurso en español. Para obtener más información, comuníquese con Theresa en [email protected].
